Using the PC-80 as an audio interface
Connections
The sound of the device connected to INPUT L (MONO) will be recorded in your computer on
the L channel, and the sound of the device connected to INPUT R will be recorded on the R
channel. If you connect only one of these, it will be recorded in monaural on your computer.
(The same sound will be recorded on the L channel and R channel.)
* Don’t connect anything to an input jack you’re not using.
Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers.
This can be remedied by:
• Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
• Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers.
• Lowering volume levels.
Input Mode setting
Select either LINE, GUITAR, or MIC as appropriate for the device you’ve connected to the
audio input jacks.

“SAMPLE RATE SETTING”
(p. 85))
* f you change the sample rate on the PC-80, you’ll need to switch it off, then switch it back on again in
order for the new setting to take effect.
Input level knob
Use the
Input Level Knob (LEVEL)
(p. 13) to adjust the input level appropriately for the input
device you’ve connected. Use your software to check the input level.
Direct Monitor button
Use this to switch the Direct Monitor function on/off.
If Direct Monitor is on, the input signal from the audio input jacks will be output from the PC-
80’s speakers, headphone jack, and master output jacks.
* This cannot be controlled from ASIO 2.0 compatible software such as Cubase.
Master volume knob
If Direct Monitor is on, this adjusts the monitor level.
* Adjusting the monitor level won’t change the recording level.
Device setting
In order to use the PC-80’s audio functionality with your software, you’ll need to make the
correct device settings. For details on how to do this, refer to the owner’s manual for your
software. For details on settings for using the PC-80 with software (such as Media Player) that
uses the standard device settings of your operating system, refer to
“PC-80 driver settings”
(p.
99).
